lyrics

Hello
Like you, I'm here
Feeling something like fear
In the air
Or in my skin
Maybe deep in my bones
Feeling kind of alone on this planet
Even though what I feel
Isn't rare at all

Cause we all feel fear
It's part of why we're here
We all feel shame
And blame things on others around us
But I've found that I am tired of the game
We keep playing
And now I just want new adventures

So I'm here
Like you
I'm here
With a little bit of fear
But mostly curiosity
About what could be
If I just come here
It feels like schmoozing and
It's kind of weird
Why we show up in places
that are new and scary
Anyway

So I'll take the time to say
I hope you like me and these tender songs
That go on and on
They're always a little too long
But that's cuz I make them up on the spot
Which is like being in public
And not knowing what to say
Which is like every single day we're alive
Alive
Alive right now
Alive
Cause even social anxiety can be existential
Alive
We're all really alive
Really really really alive

So let's be alive here
And breathe in that fear

****
